Something to look forward to

I want to go to a music festival. More specifically, Bonnarroo. Sure, I could have picked Coachella, ACL, Lollapalooza, or Warped Tour, but I feel like Bonnarroo is the best bet for my first full blown music festival.

Sure, I've been to Warped Tour, but it was only for one day, whereas Bonnarroo is 4 days of sweat, music, filth, and pure nirvana (or so I've heard).

Currently whether or not I'll be able to attend is speculative because 1) I need to somehow round up $300+ for the ticket and another $300 for general expenses. Yeah. This might be impossible. 2) It's the summer before I leave for NC to go to college. Yeah. Again, I'm going to be busy preparing so this might be impossible. 3) I haven't told, hinted, or smoke signaled my parents that I want to go yet. Mainly because I want to have enough money before I tell them my plans.

The hopes of MAYBE being able to go is what's getting me through the mounds of homework I have.

Along with that, I'm looking forward to making the above tent with my friends. Ever since last year when the publication staff made one in our hotel room in Austin I've been obsessed with tents/forts.

Gathering from the enthusiasm expressed above the likelihood of this project happening is quite high. And I will make sure to document it when it happens.

But alas, I must leave now because I have to outline the first chapter in my Environmental Science book and read the first chapter in my Art History book. And then I have to get dressed and go to an induction tea ceremony for my high school's female volunteer organization. Ah, the perks of being service chair.

My friend Emilia would seriously die to go to Bonnarroo so I guess I understand the attraction. Personally not my cup of tea, but I think if you're committed, you can earn that money/get past the obstacles in your way.

Haha, smoke signaled your parents. Clever. :)

Tents and forts will forever make me think of that one episode of Community. If you don't watch Community, you should! :D

Oh poo. Why must things cost so much money? $300 for a ticket is kind of ridic... but it would still be really awesome. As would building that freakin' fantastic fort/tent thingy. I would definitely want to do that. :D
